“From September to December 1992, I went through an intense period of pure study. I studied and studied; I revisited my love of cubism. I also looked deeply into the sheer joy of Mattisse’s work and looked upon the still lifes of Cezanne with a deliciousness. I had the time to listen without interruption to blocks of music. This was a special moment for feasts of the eyes and ears. Not since my youth had I had such stretch of time to take things in — in slow time. Study became absorption through the body— that is true study. Cells were being made, a sense of relational electricity, current connection.”
